3.1. WELDING PROCESSES

3.1.1. MMA welding

MMA welding, as well as carbon arc gouging, is possible with all MASTER MLS and
MASTERTIG MLS power sources with all MLS panel versions when switched to MMA
process.

3.1.2. TIG welding

MASTERTIG MLS power sources are intended to specialized TIG welding machines with HF
arc ignition and versatile panel functions depending on the panel in use. The panels predominatley
for TIG welding are MTL, MTX and MTM. Also the MEL and MEX panel on MASTER MLS
power source can be used for TIG welding with contact ignition.

3.1.3. Synergic Pulsed TIG welding

MTX and MTM panels include the synergic pulsed TIG process in which you only need to adjust
the welding current while other pulse parameters are pre-programmed. Pulsing frequency is high
causing concentrated arc and increased welding speed.

3.1.4. Long Pulsed TIG

This method gives you the possibility to adjust all the pulse parameters. It can be used for easier
weld pool control. It is included in MTX and MTM panels.
